Thank you for your interest in proposing a new feature for the `rust-gpu`
project. Please try to provide a short high level overview of what you would
like you to add. Also be sure to check the existing and closed MCPs to see
if it's already been proposed before posting.

### Labels
The labels for this repository are divided into the following categories;
- **`c:` Crate** Issues specific a single crate in the repository.
- **`g:` GPU** Issues specific a GPU vendor.
- **`p:` Platform** Issues specific a single operating system or platform.

### Making Changes
### Major Change Process
Most bug fixes can be implemented directly by opening a PR, however for larger design decisions and major changes to the compiler's architecture, this repository uses a two stage "Major Change Proposal" and "Request For Comments" process. If you're unsure about what's required for a specific change you should always start with [**opening an issue**][open-issue] or asking the team over on the `#rust-gpu` channel in the [Embark Discord][dis].

#### Definitions
##### **Major Change Proposal (MCP)**
A proposal to make a significant internal changes or small public facing changes to the compiler. An MCP is opened as an issue on `rust-gpu` the repository. An MCP typically only requires one member's approval. Though if the change is significantly big enough it may require the full team's sign off or require an RFC.
An MCP should generally be a short (1-2 paragraphs) high level overview of the change you would want to make, the motivation behind the change, and potential solutions. There is a [major change issue template][mcp-template] you can use for convenience.
[mcp-template]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/new?labels=mcp%3A%20proposed&template=mcp.md
Examples of what would require an MCP:
- Changing the compiler architecture.
- Adding support for an existing Rust language or feature.
- Small additions (e.g. new methods) to `spirv-std` types.
- Proposing an RFC.
Examples of what would **not** require an MCP:
- Updating documentation
- Fixing existing bugs
- Performance improvements
##### **Request For Comments (RFC)**
A proposal to make significant public facing changes to the compiler or standard library. RFCs are opened as pull requests to the `rust-gpu` repository. RFCs require full sign off by the team, before being approved or implemented. Check out the [RFC `000-template.md` document][rfc-template] for details on the structure.
[rfc-template]: https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/blob/main/rfcs/000-template.md
Examples of what would require an RFC:
- Major additions to `spirv-std`, such as new APIs, or breaking changes to existing ones.
#### Life-cycle
1. You file a [major change proposal][mcp-template] outlining the changes and the motivation for it.
2. A member of the team will review the proposal and tag it with the appropiate label.
2.1. `mcp: accepted` means that the MCP has been accepted and is ready for a pull request implementing it.
2.2. `mcp: rfc needed` means that the MCP has been accepted as something the team would like but needs a full RFC before the implementation.
2.3 Closing an issue means that the MCP has rejected.
3. If the proposal has been accepted then the implementation can begin.
### Pull Request Process
1. Fork the repository.
2. Create a new feature branch.
3. Make your changes. Ensure that there are no build errors by running the project with your changes locally.
4. Open a pull request with a name and description of what you did. You can read more about working with pull requests on GitHub [here](https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-pull-request-from-a-fork).
5. A maintainer will review your pull request and may ask you to make changes.
